Chippa United has announced the appointment of Musa Nyatama as the club’s new assistant coach.

Nyatama will assist Sinethemba Badela in the revamped technical team, following recent coaching changes at the club. Badela replaced Thabo September, who stepped down at the end of last season, while Nyatama takes over from former assistant coach Mabhuti Khenyeza.

Nyatama, a former player for Maritzburg United, Mamelodi Sundowns, Bloemfontein Celtic, and Orlando Pirates, was most recently the coach of Leruma United, a team that was relegated from the Motsepe Foundation Championship at the end of last season.

He also had a coaching stint with Moroka Swallows in the Betway Premiership before the club was sold to Marumo Gallants at the start of last season.
